Ep. 3: The Real Estate Game You Didn't Know You Were In!

🎙 REAL ESTATE DEVELOPER DISCUSSIONS WITH KATIE KIM

EPISODE 3: The Real Estate Game You Didn't Know You Were In!

🔥 You’re not just flipping houses. You’re playing the real estate development game—and this episode proves it.

👉🏼 Drop the “just.” Every time you say, “I just build,” “I just flip,” or “I just buy and hold,” you’re shrinking your role in one of the most powerful wealth-building strategies on the planet.

Katie Kim is here to expand your vision—and your vocabulary. In this can’t-miss breakdown of the 7 Stages of Real Estate Development, Katie walks you through what gets produced in each stage, how to align your time, talent, and treasure, and why staying in your lane can lead to game-changing growth.

🛠 You’ll learn:
What each stage of development actually produces
Why mastering ONE stage is the real unlock
How to build a product-type-specific network
Why clarity = capital (and how to get both)

🎯 If you’ve been playing small, this is your invitation to scale your strategy and step into your power as a real developer.
